The blood weekend of May 26th-27th. BTC dumped over 40% in 24hrs following a rapid and steep run up in all crypto assets through the May euphoria. Nothing was left untouched as every major ALT lost over 50% of it's value in 24hrs.

The shear panic and speed of the dump so soon after the recent bull-run was epic and people genuinely thought it was end times. There was also a TON of new blood on the scene that had never experienced a panic sell-off or bear market like this, had never traded before and never owned crypto.

There have been other dumps since, but not as sever and not nearly as fast or brutal.

Saiguy came from a rich family and did a mixture of investing 20k and heavily mining when it was pretty much pennies. His eventual stack hit 1.6mil after the huge bullrun last april.

He's probably down to like 400k at this point, but is still up. Originally he said that he was just going to hold forever to see what happens, it's not like he needed the money anyway.

>> No.4484522

DGB probably takes the cake, it literally went from like 2500 sats to 100 sat, and had a lot of good OC memes. In fact I think pink wojacks were "invented" right around the time of the DGB crash.

There was a lot of hype surrounding Consensus 2016 re. announcements and such. Huge amounts of new money was pouring into crypto following XRP and ETHs pumps, everyone though they were going to rich quick. All the major coins rose parabolicly during the month following (NEW PARADIGM!).
Then BTC hit something stupid like $3000 on Korean exchanges (the west didnt get there) and a selloff began. Fear and panic ripped through in a genuine race to the exit to consolidate profits. All the newbies shit themselves, all the long positions got liquidated which always compounds the problem.

No because that was literally nothing, summer this year was the worst pink wojack time of them all. There was even a time when ETH dipped from 300 to under a dollar for a short moment and the entire board was saying that BTC would not increase in value for the rest of the year. Also it was right after the death of DGB and other popular alts

SIGT was a big fat mess, but at least the "SIGT 2.0" devs are offering a 1/4 swap free of charge for their new shitcoin.
